Mohammed Bajaber’s FKF Premier League triumph and Harambee Stars rise have sparked interest.
Mohammed Bajaber has firmly placed himself on the radar of top football clubs following an impressive campaign with both the Harambee Stars and his club side, Kenya Police FC.
After starring in Kenya’s 2026 World Cup qualifiers in March against The Gambia and Gabon, and helping Kenya Police lift the FKF Premier League title in June, Bajaber is one of the most sought-after midfielders in the region.
With clubs already queuing for his signature, Pulse Sports looks at three potential destinations that could lure the Harambee Stars gem.

3. Europe – A Return to the Dream
)
Bajaber’s European aspirations are not new. He previously attended trials with Danish Superliga giants FC Midtjylland in 2021 while still developing at the Star Field Elite Academy in Nairobi.
Though a move didn’t materialize then, the exposure gave him a taste of European football and what it takes to thrive at that level.
Star Field Elite Academy director Robert Muthomi has been vocal about encouraging Bajaber to pursue opportunities in countries with proven developmental track records like Sweden or Belgium.
With the midfielder now a proven domestic champion and a rising national team figure, clubs from these nations may now view him as a low-risk, high-upside investment.
A return to Europe, this time on more favourable terms, could offer him the ideal platform to sharpen his craft and elevate his international profile.
2. Tanzania – Regional Powerhouses Come Calling
)
Closer to home, Tanzanian heavyweights Young Africans (Yanga SC) and Azam FC have both expressed interest in acquiring Bajaber, according to Pulse Sports reports in April.
The Tanzanian Premier League continues to grow in stature and visibility, particularly with clubs regularly featuring in CAF interclub competitions.
The lure of increased continental exposure, competitive wages, and playing in front of passionate fans could be enough to tempt Bajaber across the border.
For Yanga and Azam, securing the services of one of Kenya’s brightest midfielders would also be a major statement of intent in East African football.
Yet, while interest remains strong, sources close to the player suggest he would prefer a European move if the right offer is presented.
1. Stay at Kenya Police
)
Despite the flurry of transfer talk, there is still a chance that Bajaber could opt to stay at Kenya Police FC, at least for one more season.
The club has just secured the FKF Premier League title, their first ever, and is set to represent Kenya in continental competitions.
Staying on could allow Bajaber to gain valuable CAF Champions League experience and continue his growth in a familiar environment.
For Kenya Police, keeping hold of their midfield maestro would be vital as they look to maintain their domestic dominance and make a mark on the continental stage.
Mohammed Bajaber is at a pivotal point in his career, with options that span local glory, regional recognition, and international progression.
Whether he remains a cornerstone at Kenya Police, takes a bold step into the Tanzanian league, or fulfills his European dream, the next chapter for the Harambee Stars midfielder is full of promise.
